Lust For Life




I feel myself growing up some days. (like today). its the way people talk to me, and about me whille im listing. It because I go to bed at the same time every single night, regaurdless of my irritation. it's because i know the phrase "life is 10 precent what happens to you and 90 precent what you make of it." I make it what i want it to be, I work two jobs, i take pictures, i apply for scholorships, i write essays, i drink coffee, i like to be with other people. i know im different because i want people to like me, i like people.

"whille many her age can only see their immediate surroundings, Amanda is wise beyound her years. She is one of the few students who can see the big picture." reading letters of recomndations that other teachers write about me make me want to cry. The list traits that i should have. or that they think i have. I like everything they have to say about my photoraphy, and my creativeness, and my passion.

IT snowed this morning, i like the crisp air when it snows. I love that this is the last day of school before spring break and it snowed and im happy. I wore a red hat and a pea coat. I love the cold.
I work today, at the fruit stand wich i love so much. I love surrounding myself with asparagas and artic necterines. I ate a kumkat for the first time yesterday. Aaron came to my register and asked if I'd ever had one before I said no so he handed me one and said "you have to try it" i love that i get that chance to have new and different fruits and vegetables. I think im going to take home a yam today. I just adore yams.

Tomorrow I work at bed bath and beyond, which i also love for some reason. I like the idea of warm towels, I like the couples that are shopping for their new houses, and the brides that are registring for their weddnings, and their new lives together.

Sunday im off for the sunny world of maui. Im so nervouse to fly. I hate hate hate the idea of being trapped in a large plane with tons of other people in an inexcapable place. I fear i will get stuck next to a really really fat person who wont let me escape. Im bringing motion sickness pills and sleep aids. books and books and homework ahh.

and then their is coachella like a few weeks after i get back goodness!. im so so so excited. I got and email from the coachella website today saying Carpoolchella is on and that coachella is approching. I think that i finally have enough of my ducks in a row to be excited. I am nearly finished with my senior project and im so excited about everything my life has to offer. um um um. My scholorship, i turned one in yesterday for half of the art insiutute tuituion. Im very excited. I think i have a really really good chance.
